Modeler (version 3.4.2)

FittedModel: Creating FittedModel objects

Description

Construct an object of the FittedModel-class.

Usage

FittedModel(predict, data, status, details, ...)

Arguments

predict

A function that applies the model to predict outcomes on new test data.

data

A matrix containing the training data.

status

A vector containing the training outcomes, which should either be a binary-valued factor or a numeric vector of contiuous outcomes.

details

A list of the fitted parameters for the specified model.

…

Any extra information that is produced while learning the model; these wil be saved in the extras slot of the FittedModel object.

Value

Returns an object of the FittedModel-class.

Details

Most users will never need to use this function; instead, they will first use an existing object of the Modeler-class, call the learn method of that object with the training data to obtain a FittedModel object, and then apply its predict method to test data. Only people who want to implement the learn-predict interface for a new classification algorithm are likely to need to call this function directly.
